HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Chuck Zlotnick / Marvel Studios Fresh off the heels of Wandavision, Disney+ presents The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, with aspirations of answering the question of if and how Sam carries the shield. THERE ARE SPOILERS AHEAD. When last we left Sam aka “Falcon” and Bucky aka the “Winter Soldier”, they were looking at a geriatric Captain America who had decided to stay in the past with the love of his life, Sharon Carter. As old Cap speaks to a bewildered Sam, he passes him the shield and the mantle of Captain America. Unsure if he can do as good of a job, Sam promises Cap that he will do his best, to which Cap replied, “That’s why it’s yours.” As the credits roll on Avengers: Endgame we are left wondering what new adventures are in store for Sam who has b...
CERTIFIED FRESH: Day Sulan Talks 4Hunnid Compilation, Compton Roots & Finding Her Way
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Epic / EPIC Day Sulan came to win. The first lady of YG’s 4Hunnid collective asserts that victory is the only thing on her mind these days and with the recent release of the imprint’s first collaborative project, Gang Affiliated, the 24-year-old Compton native is primed and ready to go. The success of past hits like “Big” featuring Rubi Rose and her most recent single “Bailar” have provided the necessary momentum and the only way to go from here is up. Not bad for a girl who started off firmly under her parents’ thumb, relegated to the house where she spent much of her time with sketchbooks, paintbrushes and poetry. Day likens her youth to the story of Rapunzel but by the time she’d reached her adult years, she hit the ground running, even if the destinat...

L’s On Deck: New Supreme x Nike Collection Set To Drop This Week [Photos]
Source: Supreme / Supreme Last week’s Supreme/Nike SB Dunk release was a complete wash as sneaker bots ate up product before heads could even choose what size they wanted and left everyone punching the air in frustration. Source: Supreme / Supreme Are y’all ready for round two? On March 11th Supreme will be releasing a new collaboration collection that will no doubt have bots working overtime for resellers looking to cash in on the hype. From spiffy bubble down jackets to hoodies and sweatpants, the collection looks pretty damn dope. The reversible puffy jackets come in black, red, blue and yellow (basically one for every set to be repped out there), and the track suit will be made of cotton and velour blend for extreme comfort. Looks like velour will be making a comeback of sorts in 2021....
